Abstract In this study, to enhance the selectivity and sensitivity of salbutamol detection performed by a carbon plate electrode, electrode was modified using novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) combined with reduced graphene oxide (RGO). The RGO/MIP combination prepared polymerization methacrylic acid as monomer template. surface morphologies electrodes were studied field-emission scanni...

the etive igneous complex has intruded into dalradian and moine meta-sedimentary rocks in devonian. main rock types of the complex are granodiorite, monzodiorite, monzogranite, granite and diorite. geochemical studies show that the magmas were of high k calc-alkaline, i-type and metaluminous nature. application of discriminant diagrams to the etive rocks indicates a possible within-plate tecton...

the electrochemical preparation of poly-n-methylpyrrole (pmpy) coated platinum electrode in chloroform in the presence of tetrabutylammonium perchlorate, hexafluorophosphate, hydrogensulphate, periodate and iodide as supporting electrolytes was performed. the influence of electrosynthesis method, dopant anion type and operation temperature on electrochemical behavior of polymer were demonstrate...

The thrust from corona discharge might be a promising propulsion technology in future aviation due to its advantage of not requiring mechanical moving parts. Although the has been researched by many scholars, effect applied voltage’s polarity on received little attention. This very important for some special electrohydrodynamic thrusters. paper firstly built test platform reveal both and curren...

The interpretation of the surface charge pattern spacers in gas-insulated transmission lines (GIL) is an interesting and important research topic, which requires a comprehensive understanding behaviors at physical interfaces. Here, we report charging phenomenon presence metal particles inside direct current (DC) GIL. spherical particle on spacer appears as dotted discontinuously distributed spo...

Strong microfluidic vortices are generated when a near-infrared (1,064 nm) laser beam is focused within a microchannel and an alternating current (AC) electric field is simultaneously applied. The electric field is generated from a parallel-plate, indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes separated by 50 lm. We present the first l-PIV analysis of the flow structure of such vortices. The vortices exhibi...

Piezoelectricity is the ability of some materials (notably crystals and certain ceramics) to generate an electric potential in response to applied mechanical stress and vice versa. Whenever this kind of materials produce an electric signal proportional to their deformation, it is said that they work as sensors, and conversely, when they convert electrical energy into mechanical one, as actuator...

Generally the anatomy of muscles is rather complex, and the fibres have various inclination angles within the muscles. We suggest a fast and reliable way to calculate extracellular potentials produced at a point or rectangular plate electrode by a muscle fibre of finite length with an arbitrary inclination. A muscle fibre was considered to be a linear timeshift-invariant system of potential gen...

We study numerically a sequence of eddies in two-dimensional electrohydrodynamics (EHD) flows dielectric liquid, driven by an electric potential difference between hyperbolic blade electrode and flat plate (or the blade–plate configuration). The electrically flow impinges on to generate vortices, which resemble Moffatt (Moffatt, J. Fluid Mech. , vol. 18, 1964, pp. 1–18). Such phenomenon EHD was...
